3-5 million cases are severe
Up to 500,000 people die
Millions of cases of the flu are prevented in Canada alone thanks to vaccination
The saved costs of illness, not just to the individual, are estimated to run into the billions of dollars
What is the flu?
It is a highly contagious viral respiratory illness that attacks the nose throat and lungs
Is it serious?
Yes but most of the time it can be managed
Around 3,500 Canadians die each year from the flu and there are over 12,000 related hospital admissions
There are no effective treatments for the flu
Vaccination is the best protection against it
Do you provide other vaccinations during the workplace flu clinic?
Yes
For employees whose immunizations are not up to date we can also provide other occupational vaccines such as tetanus
BC offers the flu shot for free, why do we need to pay?
Yes, BC offers a Universal Influenza program. But by hosting an on-site flu clinic at your workplace, you are offering your employees the convenience of getting their flu shot at work and can expect:
- Less time taken off by employees for flu-related sickness
- Grateful employees; they will not have to use their personal time to source out a flu shot
- A workplace culture that cares – employees will feel supported by their employer, which in turn, increases morale
- A healthier work environment overall
Please note: We did try to get access to vaccine, however, the BC Health Authorities will not provide private clinics with the flu vaccine for use in the corporate setting.
"The Burnaby location has very nice staff that makes your less than fun stay much better (who likes being stuck by one or more needles). They give vaccinations for basically anything that you could need wile out travelling the world. "
